Content Data

Antiphon 1 . My refuge, my stronghold, my God in whom I trust!

Antiphon 2. His angels shall keep me in safety; no evil shall I fear.

Antiphon 3. Call upon the Lord and he will hear you.
He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
And abides in the shade of the almighty
Says to the Lord: “My refuge,
My stronghold, my God in whom I trust!”

2. It is he who will free you from the snare
Of the fowler who seeks to destroy you;
He will conceal you with his pinions
And under his wings you will find refuge.

3. You will not fear the terror of the night,
Nor the arrow that flies by day
Nor the plague that prowls in the darkness
Nor the scourge that lays waste at noon.

4. A thousand may fall at your side,
Ten thousand fall at your right,
You, it will never approach;
His faithfulness is buckler and shield.

5. Your eyes have only to look,
To see how the wicked are repaid,
You who have said: “Lord, my refuge!”
And have made the Most High your dwelling.

6. Upon you no evil shall fall,
No plague approach where you dwell;
For you has he commanded his angels,
To keep you in all your ways.

7. They shall bear you upon their hands
Lest you strike your foot against a stone.
On the lion and the viper you will tread
And trample the young lion and the dragon.

8. His love he set on me, so I will rescue him,
Protect him for he knows my name.
When he calls I shall answer: “I am with you”.
I will save him in distress and give him glory.

9. With length of life I will content him;
I shall let him see my saving power.
To the father, the Son and Holy Spirit
Give praise for ever. Amen.
